Our Take

Album Review: ECHO & THE BUNNYMEN B-Sides & Live (2001-2005) (Clear Vinyl) (RSD 2022)

When it comes to Echo & The Bunnymen, you know you're in for a wild ride. They've been delivering their signature blend of post-punk, new wave, and a touch of psychedelic rock for decades, and they show no signs of slowing down. Their latest offering, a collection of B-sides and live recordings from 2001-2005, is a treasure trove for fans and new listeners alike.

The album kicks off with a bang, as we're treated to rare B-sides that showcase the band's experimental side. Tracks like "Black Wave" and "I Want My Cruel World" are a testament to Echo & The Bunnymen's ability to push boundaries and defy genre conventions.

But where this album truly shines is in its live performances. The energy and charisma that Ian McCulloch brings to the stage are palpable, and the band's tight musicianship is on full display. From the anthemic "The Killing Moon" to the haunting "Ocean Rain," each track feels fresh and invigorating.

Sure, some may argue that this collection is for die-hard fans only, but I beg to differ. Echo & The Bunnymen have a timeless quality that transcends generations, and this album is a testament to that. So grab your clear vinyl copy, crank up the volume, and prepare to be transported to a world where the music never stops.
